Hi, I’m Brian Thacker, an award-winning travel author, travel writer, travel podcaster,
travel blogger, travel marketer and travel junkie.
I’m a British-born Australian who lives in the U.S. Yes, I'm confused, too.
I've written seven travel books, write travel articles for publications in Australia, New Zealand, UK and the U.S., write and host travel podcasts and work as a creative and copywriter on tourism and travel accounts.
My books include Rule No.5: No Sex on the Bus, Planes, Trains & Elephants, The Naked Man Festival, Where's Wallis?, I'm not eating any of that Foreign Muck, Tell Them to Get Lost and Sleeping Around.
For the past three years I have been working for Armchair Productions who create podcasts for the tourism and travel industry. My roles include research, ideation, producing, script writing and hosting of podcasts.
My articles and images have been published in print and digital publications in Australia, UK, New Zealand, U.S.A, Singapore, Hong Kong, Bali and Nepal (you haven't made in until you get into the Nepali Times).
I shoot photos for some of my travel articles - and the funny thing is that nowadays the images can be from my whiz-bang camera or my iPhone. These are some of my favourites.
I have worked as a creative director, art director and copywriter on many tourism and travel related accounts, from Tourism Noosa to Intrepid Travel and Fiji Tourism to Christmas & Cocos (Keeling) Islands.
As part of my podcast production job I shoot and edit videos (podcast trailer videos and for social media). I also enjoy throwing together videos from my trips. It's amazing what you can do with an iPhone and a GoPro.
